Review of Alagappa Chettiar Government College of Engineering and Technology.

Placements: 80 to 85% of students get placed every year in our college. The highest salary package offered may be 25 LPA, and the lowest would be 10 to 7 LPA. Top recruiting companies were Zoho, Teach Mahindra, Wipro, etc. Design engineer, production engineer, and software engineer roles were offered in my course.

Infrastructure: College has high-quality facilities. Labs, classrooms, and libraries are available. Hostel range is medium, and our hostels have a mess where you can eat your breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Also, it has a dispensary for students. Our college has all sports teams available.

Faculty: Teachers here are highly professional and knowledgeable. They are helpful to students. The course curriculum is relevant as well as useful for industrial operations. If you study well, semesters are easy to crack. The pass percentage would be 80 to 85%.

Other: I chose Mechanical Engineering because I love automobiles. In this course, you can learn about the theoretical knowledge of how an automobile works. There is no need for improvement at all. There are many more clubs and events hosted every year in this college, like culturals, sports day, etc.

Public university in Karaikudi.

Placements: I was damn sure this college was not for placements, as they showed the worst performance from their side. Even the highest package was 6.5 LPA. To secure good job, we should start approaching companies on our own. To enhance our skills, various government courses were arranged for us by integrating with Tamil Nadu skill development program.

Infrastructure: College was solely fit for students from all economic positions. Entering into various courses was easily possible when you had good merit scores. Apart from it college was so liberal with good energy and created an enthusiastic space for learning.

Faculty: Professors were good at their responsibilities, and had the potential to handle hundreds of students. Professors were especially expert in practical practices. But they made some traumas which made us feel so embarrassed and sometimes so low.

In our college, the fee is very low because it is a government college and good people are teachers.

Placements: Placements are fully organised by our college alumni, and it is highly rated. Top MNCs do not visit the college for placements. Some top companies like Zoho, Titan, etc., visit the college. Not everyone in our course is placed, and some students are not placed. There are no 100% placements in our college.

Infrastructure: Our college is one of the oldest engineering colleges in India, so the infrastructure is a little old. There is a separate place for all departments, including the office and a placement building. We have an open auditorium, a big hall with an LED display, and many buildings, which were contributed by our alumni.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and qualified. Some teachers are PhD holders. They are skilled and knowledgeable. Now, all over Tamil Nadu, all engineering colleges are following the course curriculum, so there is no need to worry. We have exam centers in our college. Exams are conducted strictly, and evaluations are done within our college.

Other: I chose electrical and electronics engineering at this college to study. Teaching many basic knowledge like wiring, preparing electrical components like a fan, TV, and other home appliances would be helpful. Yearly, we conduct department symposiums, sports day, cultural, and other club fests.

A good institution to start our college life. Best placement compared to other government colleges.

Placements: Recruiting companies are Zoho, L&T, SPIC, Titan, and Automation, which are some of the recruiters of our college. These companies represent a diverse range of industries, providing graduates with opportunities to explore careers in technology, engineering, manufacturing, and beyond.

Infrastructure: Hostel infrastructure and rooms are okay, not much like other private hostels. The hostel infrastructure and rooms are decent, meeting basic needs but not as luxurious as private hostels, offering a simple and functional living space. Guys, don't expect more.

Faculty: Faculty are more friendly when we give an interest in our studies. They give their full potential to grow our careers. Faculty are friendly and fully support students who show interest in studies, helping them grow and achieve their career goals effectively.

Other: The college campus has more greenery, and cricket, chess, football, and more sports activities are the most active sports in our college.

Placements: 85 percentage of students get placement. The highest package in our college is 5 LPA. The lowest package is 1 LPA, and the average package is 2 LPA. 80 percent of students get internships. The top recruiting company in my course is Zoho. The roles offered in my courses are IT and core.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college and hostel was somewhat good. Library and labs for practical work are available. IoT lab, and placement training center are available here. In the mess, the food was average, and the atmosphere of the hostel was good. In our college, sports and extracurricular activities are there for students.

Faculty: Teachers in the college are good at teaching. Most of the teachers are temporary staff. There is a minimum number of permanent and experienced staff. But their teaching is good. Semester exams are somewhat easy only because this college is an autonomous college.
